community A stress hormone has been found to signal through skin cells to repress the activation of hair-follicle stem cells in mice

30 upvotes 5 years ago

Stress can lead to hair loss by affecting hair-follicle stem cells, and this loss is harder to recover from if one has male pattern baldness (MPB). Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to address hair loss, but stress-related hair loss differs from androgenic alopecia.

community DHT Itch is real. The connection between Acne and Male Pattern Baldness shows this

in Research/Science 64 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses the link between seborrheic dermatitis, acne, and male pattern baldness, suggesting that DHT may cause both skin conditions and hair loss. Treatments mentioned include RU58841, finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, Nizoral shampoo, and other topical anti-androgens.

community Could male-pattern baldness have a secondary photobiological function? The Solar Window Hypothesis

11 upvotes 4 weeks ago

Male-pattern baldness might increase UVB exposure on the scalp, potentially affecting vitamin D and skeletal health. The hypothesis is debated, with some seeing it as a minor benefit in specific contexts.

community Male pattern baldness is not cosmetic.

224 upvotes 9 months ago

Male pattern baldness is linked to health risks and should be treated medically. Finasteride is effective and should be insurance-covered.

community Does everyone experiencing male pattern baldness have an oily scalp?

in Research/Science 18 upvotes 7 months ago

Male pattern baldness can occur with or without an oily scalp, but an oily scalp and seborrheic dermatitis can worsen the condition. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole shampoo are used, and managing diet and scalp care can help control symptoms.
